I am a Delta Gamma almuna and an advisor to the DG chapter in Santa Clara.
Congrats to Kappa on your invitation to colonize with Santa Clara Panhellenic this fall.
In answer to how a Greek system works without campus recognition: it is all done by the collegiate members, volunteer alumnae (including a volunteer panhellenic advisor, in lieu of a university staff advisor). NPC reps (meaning the national delegation members to NPC who are assigned to this area) often help with Bid Matching.
Santa Clara University withdrew recognition of the Greek system in 2001, citing limited university resources to monitor a rapidly-increasing GLO membership, including multi-cultural local groups, not just IFC and NPC groups. In other words, they didn't want to commit the staff resources to working with the GLOs. (It had nothing to do with any bad behavior, etc., on the part of the GLOs.) At that point, the Greeks formed their own panhellenic and IFC governing councils off-campus.
Both Delta Gamma and Kappa Kappa Gamma have experience with chapters in this type of off-campus greek system.
